Abstract

See full text

A system for restoring blood flow through an occluded vessel in the cerebrovasculature is disclosed. The system includes a tubular element constructed of shape memory material eccentrically mounted on the distal end of an introducer. The walls of the tubular element are defined by standards and connectors, and the standards are oriented at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the tubular element. A method of manufacture of the system includes cutting a tube of shape memory material, conferring a twist on the cut tube, and heat setting the tube. The method further includes affixing the shape set tube to an introducer. A method of treatment using the system is also described.
